Résumé:

Los Angeles, the place without a sense of place, famous for sprawl and overdevelopment and defined by its car-clogged freeways, might seem inhospitable to ideas about connecting with nature and community, but Gottlieb describes how imaginative social movements have coalesced to create a more liveable and sustainable city.
